2G needs to be restored
Currently using a 2G, it is 3.1.2 and firmware is 04.05.04_G
I bought it used on e-bay, it had boot neuter on it. I have restored my last 2G with the custome ipsw file from this site with no problems.
Its been a year since I have done this and don't want to mess it up, basically I use the same custome ipsw file that I used before? Put in DFU mode, hook to itunes on laptop that has a internet connection and restore with the custom ipsw file?
Thanks for any input!
I had a 3GS but it got stolen and am trying to get by with the older 2G for now.

I think my main problem was the cable that hooks up phone to computer, now when I run cydia it exits. I will keep playing around and welcome comments, and when I get it working will post my procedure that gets it working.

Still have problem, this is the custom file I used "iPhone1,1_3.1.2_7D11_Custom_Restore_SiNfuL_iPhone_6"
My phone works normal, has the cydia icon but everytime I go to cydia, it starts to load then exits out automatcally.
Any help would be appreciated!

Basically you are saying use itunes to upgrade to 3.1.3, then use spirit?
Thank you so much, I will do that tomorrow and get back to you on the results!
